Comments on: Shock As Puppy Is Flushed Down The Toilet http://www.dogmagazine.net/archives/2835/shock-as-puppy-is-flushed-down-the-toilet/ the lifestyle magazine for dog lovers Sat, 11 Jun 2011 15:23:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: amber http://www.dogmagazine.net/archives/2835/shock-as-puppy-is-flushed-down-the-toilet/#comment-53116 amber Tue, 11 Aug 2009 06:50:17 +0000 http://www.dogmagazine.net/?p=2835#comment-53116 Of course it isn't meant to be funny, it's meant to let people know the news. 'Dog flushed down toilet' does sound funny when you first hear it, but where is the evidence that anyone thinks it is funny on this site? And, it isn't leaving a 4 year old alone with a dog, there's no evidence that the 4 year old was just left alone, as he is now mature enough to be, and either came to find the dog, or the dog came to find him. So, your theory that a 4 year old was left alone with the dog is just an assumption. As for your question on outrage, there was obviously no lasting harm done to the dog, which is a miracle. Also, it has been settled as an accident, as the boy was only 4. NB. Just to clear up the queries, when I say the boy is 'now mature enough', I only mean mature enough to left on his own; this might have caused confusion.

The kid is oviously not mature enough to care for/handle an animal. Even the most basic books on either dog or on kid education warn NEVER to leave little children alone with dogs. If a fighting dog rips off the face or the arm of a 4yr old, there'll be public outrage, stressing the neglect of repsonsiblity by the dog's owner. Or claiming harsher laws. But if a dog is almost killed by an act of negligence, this is ment to be funny? I mean, come on, a 4yr old left alone with a dog. Why is there no outrage, once in the name of an animal??
